Genesis 7:8 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 7:8

Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean
Seven couple of the one, and a couple of the other: and of fowls,
clean and unclean, also a like number: and of everything that creepeth upon the earth;
and upon that only, not in the water, for these had no need of the ark, they could live in the waters.

Genesis 7:8 In-Context

6 Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters were on the earth.
7 So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean animals, of animals that are unclean, of birds, and of everything that creeps on the earth,
9 two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth.
